"You don't have to 8e alive to make yourself relevant. And you don't have to 8e a good person to 8e a hero. You just have to know who you are and stay true to that."
Vriska's death reminded me of a saying. "You don't need luck when you have knowledge." She relied on luck to survive, but she couldn't account for Terezi knowing what would occur, and no level of luck could save her from that.
Alison Smith nah light is both luck AND knowledge. but mind is decisions and, ironically enough, reality. when you are so caught up in the light of luck and knowledge that you forget the reality of the situation, this is what puts you at risk.
+José Kassai (Joe) rose can see the most fortunate outcome, and terezi can see what happens if certain actions are or aren't taken. Light refers to luck in both circumstances, but in rose's case, it's the outcome which she can see, as the luckiest and in the case in which they can defeat all their enemies and win........
She basically killed herself. She was fairly certain that she was going to a suicide mission. In the prospective timeline Doc Scratch described, she only became an unstoppable killing machine once she saw that her friends were all dead. I don't think she could live with the guilt of what she had just done to Tavros.
EB: then who did you kill? AG: He was a friend. Someone from our team. EB: then why did you kill him? did he attack you or something? AG: Yes. 8ut really, that's not why I killed him. He was no match for me. I could have just incapacit8ed him or flew away or whatever. AG: The truth is, I killed him 8ecause at the time I thought I wanted to, and sort of felt like I had to. EB: uh... EB: why did you have to? AG: 8ecause enough was enough! You don't even know how frustr8ting it was to 8e friends with him! AG: I used to really like him and always wanted to help him get stronger, so he might stand a f*cking chance to actually make it in our world. AG: 8ut he was just soooooooo weak and indecicive. He wouldn't change! AG: And when he tried to change, it was a little too l8. Always l8. L8tey l8tey l88888888. AG: Too l8 to kiss me. AG: Too l8 to kill me. AG: He couldn't do it when I really needed him to. So when I say he was actually serious about trying to kill me now of all times... AG: I just got so AAAAAAAANGRY. I am still a 8it upset thinking a8out it. AG: So I killed him. AG: And I'm pretty sure he's dead for good now. EB: wow. EB: you're right vriska. that does not sound good. AG: I know! AG: I know our races are completely different. And I really h8 the idea of you thinking worse of me 8ecause of this. AG: 8ut I don't have anyone else to talk to about it! EB: you don't? EB: what about all your friends? EB: i bet karkat would listen. EB: or what about terezi? she's pretty nice isn't she? AG: No no no no no no no no! AG: I mean, yeah their fine. 8ut I can't talk to them! EB: why not? AG: For one thing, they'd pro8a8ly just 8e p*ssed off at me for killing Tavros. AG: And more importantly. There's no waaaaaaaay I can tell them how I really feel a8out it. EB: well, how do you feel? AG: Horri8le!!!!!!!! Remember that one time Vriska felt regret? Jk I love her.
This is one of the reasons I want to go back and read the webcomic from the beginning again. It feels like there were a lot of little tidbits in Act 5 especially that went over my head. Without the further exploration of Troll romance in Act 6, I didn't really get what was going on here the first time, so I definitely have to go back and explore all of this again.
I love Andrew Hussie's way of making people feel bad for characters who originally were antagonists. Vriska talking to John during the blackout made me feel terrible. And I am sure the same happened with everyone else. Also idk why but this reminds me of Mad Father.
In all honesty, I thought Cobalt Thief on the bandcamp would sound like all the Vriska songs, fast paced with a guitar. When I heard this, it's kinda refreshing. A more sympathetic light sounding song.
I can see a lot of people saying that they feel bad for Vriska because of all she's been through, and they feel guilty for hating her, but I don't think we should feel bad for Vriska. She did torture Tavros by asking him to end her life, and then seeing what she put Sollux and Aradia through, she has a lot to hate about her. But I believe we should be proud of what Vriska is doing. We can't regret throwing the dice once they've been tossed. Vriska should know this better than any character in anything. It's too late to give Tavros back his legs, and to be a better friend to everyone. It's too late to keep Aradia from dying, because it's already happened. Vriska can't apologize for what she did, because it won't help anything. All Vriska can do is move forward and hope that what she's doing now will save everyone, and maybe earn the forgiveness of tossing the dice when she shouldn't have.
She didn't torture him by asking for him to end her life, she wanted him to end her suffering and the little shit *in her opinion probably* couldn't even do it
i dont really like how everyone hates a certain character in homestuck, vriska is awesome, a good leader, badass and deep down she has a friendly, kind and amazing personality. She's sassy and funny. Gamzee did some bad things too, and felt no remorse, but i cant find myself not liking him, his god teir just cracks me up to hard, and also he's pretty fucking cool and badass. I say i may not like eridan much, but really i like too. Equius i can sort of relate to, because he is a void player, and really its sort of sad when you think about it. Feferi, well i didn't really focus on her that much, and really zoned out when she was alive, she seems like a good character who is pretty funny when i went back and looked. Aradia is weird and awesome. Sollux is pretty fucking cool. Tavros may seem like a wimp, but he can do things himself and is a deep character, like the rest. Nepeta is cute and sort of sad. Karkat is funny and mad all the time and damn he has a fucking right lol, but really he is a deep character and has emotions and is pretty emotional. Kanaya is smart, intelligent and one of my favs, though really i love all of the trolls, all of the characters. Terezi is funny and manical and really i cant relate sort of. I love all the characters, even though they have done bad things, like gamzee, vriska, caliborn, and a few others, such as the condesce, i still love it all. I love homestuck and all of its characters and i can't find myself hating any one of them, even the ancestors, they are all funny and quirky in their own way, evenn cronus, kurloz and meenah, and the alpha kids, they are amazing even though... y'know. I love them all, and everyone should too. sorry i had to say something, ignore this
This is amazing. That is all there really is to say on the matter. You can't hate on any one character (except maybe hussie :p, lol jk). Each character had their own flaws, I mean come on even Caliborn had to have had his reasons, for if any one character were missing in Homestuck, it just wouldn't be the same now would it.
i think the morse in the song is actually .--. .-.. . .- ... . / .... . .-.. .--. / .... .. -- which is "please help him" not "please save him". sorry just thought i'd let you know
Vriska might not care to admit it, but she regrets a lot of what she did, I think. If only all of the trolls had gotten as much development as she did. ::::(
Before I even started reading Homestuck, my friends talked to me (alot) about it (not that I minded it, it's thanks to them that I know of it), and I understood that Vriska was supposed to be a bit bitchy, but for some reason........ I could never really hate her. And then when I got so far in the story, she became my favorite troll.... Maybe even my favorite character
I hated Vriska almost the entire time I read homestuck, but when I heard this song it made me realize how much of the things that I ignored about her just because I didn't like her. Now I don't hate her, I actually kinda like her.
This soundtrack makes all the Serket haters think about what the amazing things they have avoided about Vriska. Remember when John was in the car with UV, and they were talking? Vriska knew all the things she did was bad, and this song portrays it. I thought something for her would be mad dubstep or drums or something, but when you think about it, this matches her perfectly. Damnit Terezi.
@@littleseagull1363 Toby was inspired by Homestuck music and even composed some pieces himself. So this wouldn’t have to be made by Toby to see where the inspiration for things like waterfall may come from. It’s a beautiful and emotional piece.
princess 915413 What. Wow, that is surprising. I just got told to have a happy birthday from a random on the internet. I dunno whether to be happy or confused; I think I'm a mix of both. Thanks, though!
Vriska has done some truly horrible things, but I still love her. She tries so hard, but keeps fucking up. I wonder if any of the other Alpha trolls could have survived with her lusus. Maybe Eridan or Terezi. But it's horrendous that she was made into a child soldier by her own mother. Doesn't excuse or fix any of the awful things she's done, but I don't think any other troll in her position would turn out much better (if they survived at all). Love her.
I was listening to this while re reading the dialogue from the time before vris went to try to fight Jack, and honestly, I can't stop crying. Vriska is one of my favorite characters. I honestly can't see why so many people hate her. Yeah, she did some bad things, but, we all do bad stuff in some points on our life's, don't we? Hell, Vriska even admitted the stuff she did was bad. Vriska is one of my favorite characters and I am more than proud to admit that I love her.
Leon Bittencourt Question, do you hate Gamzee? Sober Gamzee. Since it would be interesting if you hated him but not Vriska. Im not saying that they were cut from the same cloth, but its just, they are somewhat similar.
Vriska apologized for what she did. She even said she regretted it. Gamzee killed two moirails (Nep and Equius), threw Karkat (his own moirail) in lava, ripped his best friend's head off and the list goes on
okay i honestly think the "please save/help him" is about john because before she died, she was worried about him dealing with jack. even as she was dying, she was talking to him. wanting him to know how much important his back up plan was and all that junk. it'd be cool if it was about tavros but he was already dead and she kind of hated him. john was facing the possibility of dying in a fight with jack. and remember even after she died, the first thing she did was seek out the john that got killed by terezi's shenanigans.
I think the line "Please save him" is referring to John maybe? She was willing to sacrifice herself by fighting Jack Noir so all her friends and John could win. She doesn't really have much chemistry with much other boys except tavros but I doubt it's referring to him.
I heard that the song was originally supposed to be for Serenity the firefly, but was switched to be Vriska's. iirc, Serenity blinks "please save him" either when PM was about to follow jack, or when dream bubble feferi was healing the Mayor.
All of Vriska's music is sad like,Do You Remem8er Me and this one. Hussie made us think she was a bitch but then after ahe died and then died again made us like her and then gave us sad music about her. Like he made me feel guilty for ever hating her -_-
Wwell, Vvriska did go through some pretty bad heartache when she lost John. Also did you knoww that Vvriska has been searching through the dream bubbles to find John so they could go on that date they planned?
Vriska had a horrible life that's why, with her lusus making her kill so she could live that's what she knew, to keep away from other, tr for no friends, and never get close. In the end she really didn't have any friends. Terezi was the first one to leave her and it was because she hated that she had killed other trolls not understanding it was her or them. Then John after words Kanaya since she saw her kissing Tavros so she then lost her moirail which would be very harsh on her mind since Kanaya never told her why. She didn't really have many other friends since she never knew how to treat others along side that she always had to keep her distance so she could and not feel guilt one day if she had to give them to spider mom.
Sarah Kessler ah. Terezi didn't "leave" Vriska because she hated how she killed people, she actually joined her ergo their flarp team the scrouge sisters,they stopped being friends when Vriska mad Terezi loose her sight and when Terezi made Vriska lose her sight in one eye and a arm.
辺古山 ペコ IRLmagikarp terezi was mad at vriska for killing aradia and crippling tavros, so she told doc scratch vriska had his magic cue ball. Scratch blew up the ball in Vriska's face which made her lose her arm/eye. Vriska when blinded terezi out of revenge.
This has such a surreal feel to it, covered in something somewhat magical. 8ut it's blanketed by a tragic tone, however if you listen closely, 8eyond the 8itter despair, you will find the light.
Vriska is a lot like me, and I can't believe I didn't find this song sooner, now I want to retread homestuck, wow I just notice I don't make sense sometimes
I'm not too into Homestuck (please don't hate me ;-;) but I will admit, it's soundtrack is absolutely beautiful. I cannot stop finding more and more beautiful pieces like this one.
The hate on any of the characters presented in this comments section (particularly towards Gamzee or Vriska) kinda sucks. You can't hate on any one character (except maybe hussie :p, lol jk). Each character had their own flaws (I mean come on even Caliborn had to have had his reasons), for if any one character were missing in Homestuck, it just wouldn't be the same, now would it.
it almost like she is crying in the picture . here Vriska, have some love for all of what you've been through. edit : FFFFFFEEEEEELLLLLLSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!
If I didn't know that Vriska wouldn't want my care, concern, or friendship, and I could meet her (even though I know that's impossible), I would do my darndest to befriend her and help her onto a better path. If she were to push me away, I'd keep coming back. Behind her cruel behavior and misguided actions lies the potential to be a great friend and hero. It breaks my heart that she never took the chances she was given. I believe that there could still be redemption for her. Even the worst person can change, if they try. She'd think I were a sap if I said as much, but I don't care. I still believe in her. It's never too late. Maybe this is the emotional Witch of Heart in me talking, but I DO believe that anyone can be better. Dream-bubble Vriska is proof of that. Vris just needs a friend to set her straight. She needs a good moirail and a LOT of mercy (both shown her and taught). Sorry about this rant to anyone who reads this. I suppose this song got to me and I needed to vent. Whatever the case, I hope that others feel the same.
Wow, 8,888 views. Probably one of the neatest things I've seen in a while. Anyway, thank you so much for posting this gorgeous music; I've been listening to all of them while drawing. (lol and once I've got some monees, I'll be sure to buy the actual homestuck albums on bandcamp. For now, though, thanks for sharing.)
just a fun fact, the small bits of morse code interspersed in the song spell out "please help him" (.--. .-.. . .- ... . / .... . .-.. .--. / .... .. --)
I don't understand why most of you guys hate this on this misunderstood cinnomon roll, well yeah she made some mistakes but she regretted what she had ever done. Afterall ... everyone makes mistakes .. don't they MAN ! I HATE THIS SONG FOR MAKING ME FEEL THINGS (sorry, I love this song. It's beautiful and deserves more attention :^()
What most people do not understand is that Vriska, is basically a son of void, which steals the light with persistence, but why does he steal? Because she knows the effect of the void, because she live in void.
*Since you joined homestuck, you get tortured with sadness. You couldn't of known because at first it was light, now it's sad as fuck and it ended, and you wait for the epilogue and hiveswap for a long time*
Does anyone know the process of making music like this? Do they get an online music producer like Garageband, or do they get each instrument and record with it in a studio? Alternatively, does anyone know how I might be able to get in contact with this songwriter?
I don't know why you hate her so much. I'm proud to say i'm a scorpio thanks For vriska. I found her a good girl,she just did a few mistakes,everyone do mistakes!,idk why her mistakes are so relevant. ♏♏♏♏♏Vriska For The Win!
LyraSoftSugar She kinda trashed the whole session. She is the single reason that the Beta Trolls aren't living in the Alpha Kids session already. Like, seriously? Come on! They could have done it and been done, but she was responsible for two immortal dog gods, and in a seperate timeline she almost killed all the trolls by leading Jack to the meteor. ^This was all intentional. Do you get why people hate her? She's also incredibly egotistical, and she emotionally abused Tavros, paralyzed his legs, killed him, blinded Terezi, and killed Aradia using Sollux.
+Xelipho but she regret what she did, at least in some way. She didn't realize the consequences of her decisions, at least for leading jack to her friends. I understand why you dislike her, but she became a good person
Jayfeather Starclan No she didn't. I'm not sure if you've finished Homestuck yet, but her sense of self is fucking ridiculous. Notice how she treats Jake? Tavros? Her ALTERNATE self? Sure she apologized, but she's still fucking terrible.
Actually, she did feel guilt about killing tavros. She didn't exactly have the best childhood, so at this point in time I can see why you hate her. But I don't because she is a good character who just... Needs a chance I guess. She hasn't had a real chance to be good.
Jayfeather Starclan BULLSHIT! She has had all the chances in the world to be good, but she's still a massive jerk. I don't think you're caught up with the comic, so I'm just going to wait until you are, then you can come back with the realization of how terrible she is.

Doesn't excuse or fix any of the awful things she's done, but I don't think any other troll in her position would turn out much better (if they survived at all). Love her.
I was listening to this while re reading the dialogue from the time before vris went to try to fight Jack, and honestly, I can't stop crying. Vriska is one of my favorite characters. I honestly can't see why so many people hate her. Yeah, she did some bad things, but, we all do bad stuff in some points on our life's, don't we? Hell, Vriska even admitted the stuff she did was bad. Vriska is one of my favorite characters and I am more than proud to admit that I love her.
Leon Bittencourt Question, do you hate Gamzee? Sober Gamzee.
Since it would be interesting if you hated him but not Vriska. Im not saying that they were cut from the same cloth, but its just, they are somewhat similar.
Vriska apologized for what she did. She even said she regretted it.
Gamzee killed two moirails (Nep and Equius), threw Karkat (his own moirail) in lava, ripped his best friend's head off and the list goes on
Leon Bittencourt I take that as a no then. Okay! Thanks.
No problem!
I just hope that this doesn't cause a riot in the comment section with the "somewhat similar part"
okay i honestly think the "please save/help him" is about john because before she died, she was worried about him dealing with jack. even as she was dying, she was talking to him. wanting him to know how much important his back up plan was and all that junk. it'd be cool if it was about tavros but he was already dead and she kind of hated him. john was facing the possibility of dying in a fight with jack. and remember even after she died, the first thing she did was seek out the john that got killed by terezi's shenanigans.
I think the line "Please save him" is referring to John maybe? She was willing to sacrifice herself by fighting Jack Noir so all her friends and John could win. She doesn't really have much chemistry with much other boys except tavros but I doubt it's referring to him.
I mean...she did also KILL Tavros.
Hussie...
I heard that the song was originally supposed to be for Serenity the firefly, but was switched to be Vriska's. iirc, Serenity blinks "please save him" either when PM was about to follow jack, or when dream bubble feferi was healing the Mayor.
All of Vriska's music is sad like,Do You Remem8er Me and this one. Hussie made us think she was a bitch but then after ahe died and then died again made us like her and then gave us sad music about her. Like he made me feel guilty for ever hating her -_-
Wwell, Vvriska did go through some pretty bad heartache when she lost John. Also did you knoww that Vvriska has been searching through the dream bubbles to find John so they could go on that date they planned?
Vriska had a horrible life that's why, with her lusus making her kill so she could live that's what she knew, to keep away from other, tr for no friends, and never get close. In the end she really didn't have any friends. Terezi was the first one to leave her and it was because she hated that she had killed other trolls not understanding it was her or them. Then John after words Kanaya since she saw her kissing Tavros so she then lost her moirail which would be very harsh on her mind since Kanaya never told her why. She didn't really have many other friends since she never knew how to treat others along side that she always had to keep her distance so she could and not feel guilt one day if she had to give them to spider mom.
Yeah I know all that
Sarah Kessler ah. Terezi didn't "leave" Vriska because she hated how she killed people, she actually joined her ergo their flarp team the scrouge sisters,they stopped being friends when Vriska mad Terezi loose her sight and when Terezi made Vriska lose her sight in one eye and a arm.
辺古山 ペコ IRLmagikarp terezi was mad at vriska for killing aradia and crippling tavros, so she told doc scratch vriska had his magic cue ball. Scratch blew up the ball in Vriska's face which made her lose her arm/eye. Vriska when blinded terezi out of revenge.
This has such a surreal feel to it, covered in something somewhat magical. 8ut it's blanketed by a tragic tone, however if you listen closely, 8eyond the 8itter despair, you will find the light.
Vriska - The most baddass, and most depressing character in homestuck.
Il y a tellement de musiques touchantes et poignantes dans Homestuck...
I started translating the morse code in the song but then I realized it was in the description....
wow,wat say?
Patata cognian Well, it's already written in the description, but the Morse Code spells out "Please save him"
This came up in a youtube reccomended video and made me remeber how much i love homestuck;
Vriska is a lot like me, and I can't believe I didn't find this song sooner, now I want to retread homestuck, wow I just notice I don't make sense sometimes
CrazyInsaneAnimal Girl989 i mean i've re read it 3 times, gonna start my 4th soon
u cant get out of the loop
help
I'm not too into Homestuck (please don't hate me ;-;) but I will admit, it's soundtrack is absolutely beautiful. I cannot stop finding more and more beautiful pieces like this one.
I pray that at some point, you decided to read it
The hate on any of the characters presented in this comments section (particularly towards Gamzee or Vriska) kinda sucks. You can't hate on any one character (except maybe hussie :p, lol jk). Each character had their own flaws (I mean come on even Caliborn had to have had his reasons), for if any one character were missing in Homestuck, it just wouldn't be the same, now would it.
i mean you can appreciate that a character exists and still hate them
looking back at this's upload date... I am disappointed that it wasn't the 8th of October
Ah, 2013 - a better time when I was too stressed and confused to worry about simple things like meme numbers.
Nah, August 8th woul'dve been the perfect date. (8/8)
It was published on 11/12/13, that's cool enough.
it almost like she is crying in the picture .
here Vriska, have some love for all of what you've been through.
edit : FFFFFFEEEEEELLLLLLSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!
If I didn't know that Vriska wouldn't want my care, concern, or friendship, and I could meet her (even though I know that's impossible), I would do my darndest to befriend her and help her onto a better path. If she were to push me away, I'd keep coming back. Behind her cruel behavior and misguided actions lies the potential to be a great friend and hero. It breaks my heart that she never took the chances she was given. I believe that there could still be redemption for her. Even the worst person can change, if they try. She'd think I were a sap if I said as much, but I don't care. I still believe in her. It's never too late. Maybe this is the emotional Witch of Heart in me talking, but I DO believe that anyone can be better. Dream-bubble Vriska is proof of that. Vris just needs a friend to set her straight. She needs a good moirail and a LOT of mercy (both shown her and taught). Sorry about this rant to anyone who reads this. I suppose this song got to me and I needed to vent. Whatever the case, I hope that others feel the same.

Plant Artist Substitute "human" for "troll", and you've got my exact feelings surrounding Vriska.
Exactly
Plant Artist You too, huh?
This song is so heavy, man. TOO HEAVY.
*Cry deeply*
It's heavy but I have STRONG EMOTIONS!
I... i don't
*Lies down*
*Tries not to cry*
*Cries a lot*
thANKS FOR MAKING ME CRY
// You-'re welcôme.
All the tears.
Allllllll of them.

***** yeah! :^)
***** haha varför inte
***** alrite, fattar. åk på konvent!! där är det fullt av homestackare :^))
Wow, 8,888 views. Probably one of the neatest things I've seen in a while.
Anyway, thank you so much for posting this gorgeous music; I've been listening to all of them while drawing. (lol and once I've got some monees, I'll be sure to buy the actual homestuck albums on bandcamp. For now, though, thanks for sharing.)
you wanna know what would be neater 88,888,888 views
I have to feel as if this theme was made for punk! Vriska.
The last updates have been so sad ;_;
right in my feels
This song was actually made for Serenity, I believe.
But it _was_ made for Serenity. They switched it at the last minute.
I was rereading a part of Homestuck and found the part where serenity says pleases help him then decided to listen to this song
just a fun fact, the small bits of morse code interspersed in the song spell out "please help him" (.--. .-.. . .- ... . / .... . .-.. .--. / .... .. --)
such a sad sounding song for such a badass babe.
:(
I love it so much.
.--. .-.. . .- ... . / ... .- ...- . / .... .. -- "please save him" In the actual song... I didn't need my heart anyway...
This song is quite touching, to be honest.
If there is one thing hussie is damn good at, it's making us cry.
Is this really a track that was made for Serenity? Because that makes so much sense now.
I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY USED MORSE CODE I- I JUST NOTICED OHMYGOD
CRYING BC "PLEASE SAVE HIM"
RIP Vrisjohn
+just someone finally
+just someone I like your name and your profile picture.
As the discription isnt here, the morse code translates into "please save him"
And who she means is up to you
I don't understand why most of you guys hate this on this misunderstood cinnomon roll, well yeah she made some mistakes but she regretted what she had ever done. Afterall ...
everyone makes mistakes .. don't they
MAN ! I HATE THIS SONG FOR MAKING ME FEEL THINGS
(sorry, I love this song. It's beautiful and deserves more attention :^()
*****
well later on she regretted it and Tavros forgived her so it's cool now
+☆Nepurrta "SATAN" The D3stroy3r☆ Same with Gamzee and Eridan, apperently if a character kills off a good character it makes people hate them
it reminds me a bit of the soundtrack from spirited away
*no amount of sad music will ever make me stop hating vriska*
SAME
this song was originally for serenity
I love this song so much. Vriska is my precious baby.
I'm in tears.
vriska would be great at D&D
8luh 8luh 8est 8itch. ::::)
We now have more canon interpretation of the caliginous quadrant (Yay!), so I don't quite think so, but I'm sure it's close!
What most people do not understand is that Vriska, is basically a son of void, which steals the light with persistence, but why does he steal? Because she knows the effect of the void, because she live in void.
Gato sexo, fan de homestuck, te vuelvo a encontrar
@@vanessa9815 🙀🙀🙀 pero de donde
do you know that tears burn if you leave them on your face for long enough? my eyes do.
Why this wings looking like Squidward's House windows?
this sounds like something out of Golden Sun, it's so good!!!
So beautiful, I will learn the piano part soon.
*Since you joined homestuck, you get tortured with sadness. You couldn't of known because at first it was light, now it's sad as fuck and it ended, and you wait for the epilogue and hiveswap for a long time*
OMG IT`S SO BEAUTIFUL
Does anyone know the process of making music like this? Do they get an online music producer like Garageband, or do they get each instrument and record with it in a studio? Alternatively, does anyone know how I might be able to get in contact with this songwriter?
Oooh those chords at the beginning are so Ghibli
When I first started reading homestuck, I hated Vriska. Now, I love her to bits and I hate myself for ever hating her. :(
Timeless
Vriska did everything wrong
Aw I love vriska! Even if she did shome thingyys
+falling obeasity ''some''
don't you mean a lot?
Vriska will always be my favorite troll ;_;
This sounds like something from Kingdom Hearts
This gives me a mario galaxy vibe.
magnifique
For some reason, this remember me to a Disney movie...
the feels are getting to me oh no ;0;
How did i get here from elevatorstuck
no please
feelings go away
i hate vriska with a burning passion, but christ on a unicycle do her songs make me tear up
LIKING THIS COMMENT ONLY FOR THE EXAGGERATED TERM.
You don’t have to 8e a good person to 8e a hero, and shit.
Why is this song in a chill compilation. This is definitely a cRI LIKE A FUCKING BABY SONG, IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.
THATS WHAT THE MORSE MEANS THANK
I don't know why you hate her so much.
I'm proud to say i'm a scorpio thanks For vriska.
I found her a good girl,she just did a few mistakes,everyone do mistakes!,idk why her mistakes are so relevant.
♏♏♏♏♏Vriska For The Win!
LyraSoftSugar She kinda trashed the whole session. She is the single reason that the Beta Trolls aren't living in the Alpha Kids session already. Like, seriously? Come on! They could have done it and been done, but she was responsible for two immortal dog gods, and in a seperate timeline she almost killed all the trolls by leading Jack to the meteor.
^This was all intentional. Do you get why people hate her? She's also incredibly egotistical, and she emotionally abused Tavros, paralyzed his legs, killed him, blinded Terezi, and killed Aradia using Sollux.
+Xelipho but she regret what she did, at least in some way. She didn't realize the consequences of her decisions, at least for leading jack to her friends. I understand why you dislike her, but she became a good person
Jayfeather Starclan No she didn't. I'm not sure if you've finished Homestuck yet, but her sense of self is fucking ridiculous. Notice how she treats Jake? Tavros? Her ALTERNATE self?
Sure she apologized, but she's still fucking terrible.
Actually, she did feel guilt about killing tavros. She didn't exactly have the best childhood, so at this point in time I can see why you hate her. But I don't because she is a good character who just... Needs a chance I guess. She hasn't had a real chance to be good.
Jayfeather Starclan BULLSHIT!
She has had all the chances in the world to be good, but she's still a massive jerk. I don't think you're caught up with the comic, so I'm just going to wait until you are, then you can come back with the realization of how terrible she is.
this song make me felt sad .
so 8eutiful
Is it just me or is does this sound hella depressing
sooo now nobody goone to talk about the code morse?
Nobody talks about it because it's that sad. I read on the original version of this that the Morse code is saying "please save him"
Who?
Tango you probably found out by now but mayor
Ii love thii2 2ong 2o much eventhou iit2 2ad
Listening in 2020 :]
Listening in 2023
vriska best girl...
0:12 is it just me or does this sound like pokemon music
This sounds like it came from Hyper Light Drifter
Thief of Life would be more fitting for Vriska's god tier.
Thief of life is for meenah
if she didn't have light she wouldn't be able to steal her luck
which would have made her a much different person today
Wait, wait, wait. It's not "Please save him", it's "Please help him". You can actually hear some of the similarity on 'e' and 'l'.
Oh wait nevermind.
Dhani Adriananta I'M RIGHT, IT'S 'HELP' NOT 'SAVE'. Shouldn't have said that out loud.
boop.
VRISKA WHY U DO THIS FOREVER DATE DEAD JOHN IN YOUR DREAMS RIP MUCH TEAR
Why 80% of HS music must be so sad?!
because Homestuck intirity is sad
☆Nepurrta "SATAN" The D3stroy3r☆
I know. Just thinking about what hapened to Davesprite, or guardians...
Onion ninjas are everywhere...
What do you whink about update?
Aco cięto
oh I haven't gone past act six yet so I'm pretty much trying to ignore spoilers at all cost
Oh, I see. Well then, good luck of moving through the life without accquaring those awful things.
Seeing as you get through act 5, what do you think aboutn EoA5, known also as [s] Cascade?
WHY HUSSIE WHY!!!
I forgot about Vriska.
To be honest I didn't like the glitchy beeping part in it, otherwise it was a very sad and lovely song.
Fuckin god i love this
